Great Food and Great Service!

We cannot recommend Jane and Ernie enough! We had them cater our October 2024 wedding and they were absolutely incredible. From the start we had a great tasting with them, they were responsive and answered all of our questions along the way and delivered great service day of. We got so many compliments that they were the best wedding food our guests had ever had. The food is delicious, and the service was impeccable. You won't regret hiring them to help with your special day!

Caterers of my dreams!

I cannot put into words how grateful I am to have found EJ 2 step catering!
If you want the best wedding food you’ve ever had in your life, service that is unmatched, and owners who genuinely care about you and your wishes for your big day then EJ 2 step is who you need. We received so many compliments not only on our food but also on the service that was provided! Their servers were kind, polite, and went above and beyond. They kindly packed my husband and I up to go boxes to enjoy at the end of the night as weddings really do get crazy! Ernie & Jane are some of the most genuine and lovable people I have ever met. All of my guests with allergens were taken care of and it truly was the best time. They were also extremely transparent from the start about cost and willing to work with us 100%! Jane even started knowing what we liked and our style and knew exactly what empanadas we would pick for our cocktail hour before we even tasted them! I have literally nothing negative to say about Ernie & Jane and neither does my husband! They are truly the best caterers and amazing people!

incredible experience especially for the cost!

I can’t imagine a hiring another caterer for what was absolutely the best day of our lives. Having a supportive team is so important leading up to hosting all of your close friends and relatives. I will forever be grateful to Jane for helping us to create such a wonderful menu! They also helped us find our cake vendor who was equally wonderful to work with. Jane took all of our feedback and communicated so clearly. Such a sweet family to work with and will absolutely be hiring them again for our next big event!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
